To start the BIOS Setup utility:

corner of the screen.

the
F
1 key.
If BIOS Setup starts on its own
BIOS Setup might start on its own for three reasons:
♦
The power-on self-test (POST) detects a configuration error or
fault. This may be signalled by one or more of the POST error
messages listed in the “Troubleshooting” chapter. If a
persistent fault is indicated, make a note of any error messages
and the current configuration settings before calling an
authorised maintainer.
♦
The CMOS battery may be running down. This may cause
spurious POST error messages. If this happens every time you
turn on the computer, you may have to change the battery as
described in Appendix A.
♦
The computer’s configuration may have changed, for example
by the addition of more system memory or an expansion card.
In this case you may have to define the new configuration.
